I don't often write reviews for books, but this story surprised me in ways I did not expect. I don't remember how it ended up on my To-Read list but I am glad it did; 95% of what I read is Sci-Fi / Fantasy.
I'm am not sure if it is because I never read this genre, or if it is because I am male, but Lessons in Chemistry drew me in and filled me with all the emotions. All the main characters are enjoyable and I personally felt deeply happy/sad for Ms. Elizabeth Zott throughout her journey.
I hope that anyone who reads this can experience it like I did. I was also happy to find out that there is already a show made which I will certainly be checking out.
Contains spoilers
Read after the first season of the show.
Unsure why they decided to fill it out so much, the source material (book) flows much better. Although I do appreciate the extra details that they created for the show (surveillance).
Book characters are much better balanced; less 1 dimensional. Bernard and Jules especially.
Great read and awesome world overall!
